Izzy Osborne 76 Has Died😟

After suffering from Parkinson's for several years.  I don't suppose there are many Heavy Metal fans on here but Black Sabbath were probably the best known band of that genre.  He died “surrounded by love”, a statement from his family said on Tuesday night.The family said: “It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning.“He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time.“Sharon, Jack, Kelly, Aimee and Louis.”

I agree, Michael.  We were just talking about this.  It’s not so long ago, that Christine McVie passed away too. We liked him because he was such a down to earth Brummie, even with the further stardom that came his way with the US reality show.

Very sad. Only just appeared in . Bad few weeks for music: Dave Cousins, Brian Wilson, Lou Christie, Mick Ralphs, Connie Francis ...

Very sorry to hear this sad news.  We aren’t fans of metal, but have seen Black Sabbath when we were teenagers.  When my husband was a small child, he lived in the same road as Ozzy: Lodge Rd, Aston and attended the same school.  My husband was too young to remember him, though.
